The layered silks from courtesans that Lee Chang had haphazardly combined into a semblance of what could be called real clothing did very little to hide the fact that Mingyu was correct, but he groaned softly at the innuendo anyway.
It was very tempting to lie here in Mingyu’s bed and forget the world for a while. But something was still nagging at the back of his mind, despite the words that came between. At least the others are honest to themselves and pay me for my time. He suked in another breath and shut his eyes. Why couldn’t he just - let himself enjoy whatever it was they were? What did it matter if he was the only one or not? He never would be. At the very least, he would be sharing his love with a ghost. And yet it still gnawed at him, clawing from the inside as his fingers curled in Mingyu’s grip.
He parted his lips, about to ask, but the words wouldn’t rise to his lips.
Instead, he just pulled his head and shoulders up off the bed, straining his arms backward where they were still pinned, and stole another kiss from those deadly beautiful lips.
